He said on the commentary for the Kino DVD that he experimented with oversaturating the colors and adding an effect where they shimmer like older 2-strip technicolor, but decided against it. I suspect he'll decide against it again.willoneill wrote: Sat Mar 23, 2024 1:58 pm In the case of Careful, the work is underway. They're using the original negative (which I think TIFF had in storage) and he's working with Zeitgeist to redo the colour timing; I note that because Maddin himself admitted he doesn't trust himself not to over-saturate the colours if left to his own devices. I thought that was an interesting admission considering the many debates over the years between physical media labels honouring a director's wishes vs. releasing an image as close as possible to how the films were originally seen.

Besides the previously-announced Cate Blanchett, it stars Alicia Vikander, Roy Dupuis, Charles Dance, Denis Ménochet, Nikki Amuka-Bird, Rolando Ravello, Hira Takehiro, and Zlatko Burić, and it's expected to release this year.
